9-8 RU middle of 1st. We should be able to beat this team easily. Cornwell lookin good.

15-15 after 1

 

[ScarletteK80]

We "should" be able to beat Cornwell easily, but..
Speed kills, let's go RU.

 

[ScarletteK80]

23-20 Cornell leads, middle of 2nd.

34-34 half

RU had a good run at the end of the half. Let's hope momentum carries over to second half.

 

[ScarletteK80]

I like the way that JoJo Lacy plays. Also, need to get Petticord more in volved in game.

Cornell is shooting well. Looking at stats other than shooting percentage, RU should be winning. FT% needs to improve. For those watching live, was there good pressure on defense in first half? Did it look like the missed three-point attempts were made too early in the shot clock?

Defense needs to really step it up more. Also, we are so much more athletic, can't figure out why(Coquese) doesn't have them run, run, and run.

Lacey hasn't taken a shot yet in the 3Q; she was the best shooter in first half. Cornwell missing.

Down 52-47 at end of 3rd quarter

 

[ea_1]

Shooting percentage dropped for both teams in 3Q.

 

[ScarletteK80]

They ALL better wake up, and fast.

 

[ea_1]

RU scored well on turnovers in the 1H. If Scarlet Knights are going to get fouled on the breakaways, they need to start making FTs at a better rate. Sorry for stating the obvious.

 

[ea_1]

Okay, let's create some space in the score with another run.

 

[ea_1]

At the under 6 media time-out, RU leads 61 55. Correction: Cornell's time-out.

 

[ScarletteK80]

61-55 RU taking charge. Can they keep it up?

 

[ScarletteK80]

Quite the finish for RU. Destiny Adams took over. Has 30/15.

Excellent 4Q!

 

[ea_1]

Let's keep it rolling, RU. FT practice needed.

 

[RUTrack94]

25-9 in the 4th … awesome!!!

 

[hoquat63]

Monster game for Adams. McMiller had bad shooting night. Obviously talented, but needs to slow down and look to dribble less, shoot less and pass more. Petticord with two big treys, Lacey nice game.
One big improvement this year, a lot fewer turnovers- usually had 20+ per game last year.
